Placement of Reese standard bed rails?

had that same hitch on my last truck. Those holes are not there to adjust for the spacing of the rails. They are there to allow you to move the entire hitch forward or back from the centerline of the axle. The rails are designed to be spaced the same distance apart for every hitch. That way you can interchange hitches using the same rails. If you purchase model specific brackets for your install they will set the rails at a specific spacing, but there is a slight amount of tolerance that will aloow them to move slightly. You will need the hitch to get the exact spacing. I hope you are shopping online for that Super Glide. I found mine online for 1/2 of what a local dealer wanted.

X2, BUT industry standard, means "industry standard" You do not need the hitch, if you install the rails per industry standard dimensions! That way any industry standard hitch should work. Read my post, no hitch, installed per instructions for "industry standard" hitches, and guess what it worked!!!
